Paroles de My time outside the womb

The first thing you see is the lightThen, you focus on a man in a mask with a knifeAs he cuts you away from everythingYou thought you knew about life

Now you're in your mother's arms, wrinkled and wetYou'll spend the rest of your life trying to hard to forgetThat you met the world naked and screamingAnd that's how you'll leave it

In riverside hospital, on a july morningWith a push and a pull this is how i found outI wasn't quite so invulnerableIt put the fear of god in me when i heard my daddy say'one mistake is all that it takes'

I ended up at central school, 1993And met a certain kid named sarim at the libraryHe said, "they're ain't nothing about this place that's elementary"I learned to play the guitar in the seventh gradeIn order to convince everyone i was a renegade

That's when i learned, in glen rockEverybody calls a spade a spadeI couldn't fool anyone, i couldn't even fool myselfI was just another book on the shelf, nothing else
